Design drives my creativity—a passion
sparked in university and shaped through
problem-solving, meaningful experiences, and
a balance of function and emotion. Alongside
this, my cinematography journey continues to
evolve, guided by a love for composition and
cinematic color. Both disciplines fuel my
desire to push creative boundaries.

AL-SIQ - PETRA
S O U V I N E R P R O D U C T

Introduction
The project focuses on designing a unique and innovative tourist souvenir inspired by the
city of Petra, particularly emphasizing the experience of walking through the Siq.
The goal is to create a product that encapsulates the emotions and architectural beauty
of the Siq, translating it into a decorative yet functional item.

Concept Development
Initially, the research centered around the gods of the Nabateans and the rich historical
narrative of Petra. However, during the process, it became evident that the Siq—with its
dramatic curves, towering walls, and historic water channels—is underrepresented in
souvenir products.
This realization shifted the focus toward creating a design that captures the essence of
walking through the Siq, reflecting its physical and emotional impact on visitors.

Concept Development
Sketches and Ideation:
Initial sketches explored abstract and literal
representations of the Siq.
Ideas ranged from miniature models of the Siq to
symbolic designs capturing its curves and flow.
The concept evolved into a parametric structure,
emphasizing the path’s curves and the surrounding walls.
The journey through
the Siq builds
anticipation,
culminating in the
breathtaking view of
the Treasury.
Ancient Nabatean water channels along
the Siq represent an engineering marvel.
The Siq’s winding path and
towering walls create a unique,
immersive experience.

Parametric Design Approach
The structure reflects the
aerial view of the Siq
path, with flowing,
curved walls inspired by
the canyon’s natural
formations.
A water-flow feature
was integrated into
the design to
symbolize the ancient
water channels within
the Siq. The movement
of water visible from
all angles enhances
the interactive and
storytelling aspect of
the product.
Parametric design
techniques were used
to achieve a continuous,
fluid form, mimicking
the Siq’s dynamic
geometry.

Introduction
By studying product design fundamentals, I explored how humans form emotional
attachments to shapes beyond functionality.
My research focused on the psychological process behind product selection, revealing
that people are drawn to unique forms with deeper narratives. Inspired by my
sentimental connection to Wadi Rum, I studied its mountains—their horizontal forms and
layered connections—to create a design that embodies their essence.
White Rum Sandstone
Purple Um Sahn Sandstone
Basalts or Granite
Wadi Rum mountains consist of
three layers, each layer taking its
shape through exposure to
erosion processes over time.

Concept Development

Function
The product consists of two layers, and using the self-watering technique allows me to
connect the two layers into one standing shape that serves the concept purposes, and
gives an easy way to serve the function.
This layer stores water and irrigates
the soil through thread ropes. A glass
panel on top allows water level
visibility.
The First layer
Soil pot
The Second layer
water tank
The agricultural layer holds soil without
needing irrigation, with side ventilation
holes for aeration.

Prototype
Viewed from above, the intersecting angles
of the layers symbolize the movement of
wind and the impact of water in shaping
Wadi Rum’s mountains. These natural forces
influenced the product’s form, ensuring both
functional efficiency and an aesthetic
deeply connected to its concept.

SEDRA INCENSE
I N C E N S E B U R N E R P R O D U C T

Introduction
Rooted in ancient Egyptian rituals, this incense holder embodies the elegance and
spiritual significance of pyramid structures.
The design features sharp geometric lines and symmetrical forms, reflecting the
aesthetics of the Pharaohs while offering a functional, modern piece. Using minimalist yet
refined materials, it bridges the past and present, honoring Egypt’s cultural heritage
while enhancing contemporary spaces with a timeless and meaningful design.

Concept Development

Function
This design features two interlocking layers: an inner layer for bakhoor and an outer
one for the Mabkharah. Inspired by the pyramids, it blends geometric elegance with
the cultural richness of ancient Egypt.
Embedded magnets ensure stability and
precise alignment, forming a cohesive,
pyramid-like shape. Each layer serves a
function while uniting to honor ancient
Egyptian architectural elegance.

Prototype
For the package visuals, I selected a color
palette that conveys subtlety and luxury, using
it to depict pyramids in the background. This,
paired with a discreet logo placement, gives
the design an elegant, refined feel. Additional
elements were added to capture the broader
inspirations and historical depth behind the
design.
The exterior of the final
package is made from wood to
highlight its natural elegance,
while the interior is lined with
iron for heat protection, as
wood is flammable. Note: The
prototype was initially crafted
entirely from wood.

RAMADAN DAYS COUNTER
I S L A M I C W A T E R C L O C K F O R R A M A D A N

Introduction
The Ramadan Water Clock blends lunar symbolism with modern design to guide spiritual
reflection. Inspired by the crescent and full moon, it marks time through flowing water
and subtle lines—encouraging mindfulness in prayer and devotion throughout the holy
month.

Concept Development

3D RENDER
The design is split into
two halves, reflecting
the Islamic lunar
calendar. The upper
crescent symbolizes
the start of Ramadan,
gradually filling to a
full moon by the 15th
day, while the lower
half marks the journey
toward the month’s
end. The slow water
flow mirrors the pace
of Ramadan,
encouraging prayer,
reflection, and
spiritual connection.
This visual and
physical passage of
time invites users to
engage mindfully with
their faith throughout
the holy month.

Prototype
Lines on the front mark the water level, gently reminding users of time spent in reflection.
Small air-release holes control the flow, adding intention and reverence. This clock
becomes more than a timekeeper—it’s a tool for deepening spiritual connection.
This clock serves as a symbolic guide during Ramadan, aligning mind, body, and spirit.
Blending Islamic art and science, it merges timeless design with sacred purpose, reflecting
the divine rhythm of faith.

Font Design
The Arabic font "Cracks" was inspired by the road cracks commonly seen across our
country. Spending a lot of time traveling between different regions, I observed the
unique patterns and textures formed on the roads. These journeys and experiences
sparked the idea to create a font that captures the character and story of these
landscapes.

Font Design
While exploring the history of Arabic fonts, I discovered a typeface that closely aligns
with the concept I’m developing. Its visual language and stylistic elements resonate
deeply with my design approach, offering both historical significance and aesthetic
harmony. This connection not only reinforces the authenticity of my idea but also provides
a rich cultural foundation that I can build upon and reinterpret through a contemporary
lens.
